Chapter 461: Chapter 359: Mysterious Tree Reaching to the Sky_2

In an instant, Su Yu had dispatched two Tree Spirit Beasts, leaping into the air again and landing with a thunderous crash. His elbows slammed down, producing two ’plop’ sounds that turned the remaining two Tree Spirit Beasts into two blobs of green, pulpy mincemeat. At the same moment, he was entwined by green-vine like appendages swung by the Elite Tree Spirit Beast standing defiantly before him.

With a sly smile, Su Yu snarled, flexing his arms and releasing a crisp ’crack’ sound. The terrifying strength of his move immediately shattered the green vines binding his body and limbs. The Elite Tree Spirit Beast let out a painful scream as Su Yu lunged forward like lightning, slamming heavily into the creature.

With a roar, the monster spat green juice from its mouth, crashing hard into a large tree behind it. A loud ’crack,’ and the tree was instantly broken in half. Then, it fell limp to the ground with a game-over ’splat.’ Its body nearly snapped in two, it writhed on the ground for a few moments, then quickly perished.

Having dealt with these five monster, Su Yu turned to Ada, "The congregation of so many Tree Spirit Beasts here, could it be related to that giant tree we saw earlier? Even in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, that tree was strikingly enormous." Even the Fog Monster they had encountered in the Heavenly Pit Forest couldn’t compare to the colossal tree they had just spotted in the distance.

Ada had been lost in thought, but at Su Yu’s prompt, it nodded lightly, "It might be related. Nature breeds all kinds of creatures; such anomalous appearances may indicate some special attribute. Su Yu, it’s worth exploring."

With an ’hmm,’ Su Yu agreed. He was now at full strength, roughly paralleling a ’Seventh Order Junior’ expert while the number of Tree Spirit Beasts appearing had shocked him a bit, their threat level was still negligible. That eerily gigantic tree was definitely worth investigating.

Having made up his mind, Su Yu headed towards the location of the huge tree that he had spotted earlier. Simultaneously, he activated the ’Radar Wave,’ sporadically scanning his surroundings.

While on his way, Su Yu comfortably dealt with several attacks by Tree Spirit Beasts. Meanwhile, Dodo faithfully followed him. Finally, the towering tree came into sight. As he approached, the grandeur of the tree became more palpable; it looked like a mountain from afar.

Suddenly, Ada let out a slight gasp. Soon after, the galloping Su Yu also sensed it: a distant, faint roar and snarl of a mighty monster echoing from ahead.

Although distant and barely audible, it clearly wasn’t a sound that one or two creatures could make; it was undoubtedly the chorus of countless monsters. More than that, the mix also contained heartbreaking shrieks and hoarse roars that suggested fierce battles going on.

With a light chill running down his spine, Su Yu sped up towards the roaring monsters. As the roars got louder, Su Yu couldn’t help but stop. The scene before him took him somewhat aback.

antesrising before him was the enormous tree, majestic as a mountain. The sheer girth of the trunk had to be acres wide, a degree of largeness not conforming to a regular tree.

Its towering height disappeared into the sky, the thick and verdant top of the tree forming umbrella-like shapes that pierced into the clouds. At the base of the tree were numerous honeycomb-like holes from which heads of many Tree Spirit Beasts and Elite Tree Spirit Beasts were poking out, occasionally letting out roars filled with anger, unwillingness, helplessness, and a touch of fear.

Encircling the base of the tree was a horde of at least a thousand Tree Spirit Beasts and Elite Tree Spirit Beasts. The sight was immensely heart-stirring. The loud roars Su Yu had heard from afar had come from these nearly a thousand Tree Spirit Beasts.

At this moment, a pack of Tree Spirit Beasts had gathered all around. On the ground, numerous bodies of Tree Spirit Beasts and Elite Tree Spirit Beasts had fallen, forming a river of blood. In the center, two figures were engaged in combat. By the time Su Yu quietly arrived, the battle was reaching its climax.

In this showdown, one was a colossal Tree Spirit Beast, nearly four meters tall, draped in golden leaf-like fur. Vines, evolved into snake heads, slithered all over it like dozens of monstrous hands, making it appear menacing and fierce.

When Su Yu arrived, he saw that the head of this Golden Tree Spirit Beast had been smashed into pieces. It did not even get a chance to scream before it fell to the ground with a thud, bleeding profusely. Its vine-like snake heads lay scattered all around on the ground.

Even without activating the "Perception Eye", Su Yu could tell that the golden monster that had just fallen was indeed a "Golden Tree Spirit Beast". Looking at its entire body, its Goldenization was very thorough. The Level 6 Golden Beast Soldier, "Golden Tree Spirit Beast" had almost reached the limit of Goldenization, hinting that its strength was likely immeasurable, possibly beyond the Seventh Order Realm.

However, such a terrifying, almost perfectly Goldenized Golden Tree Spirit Beast was killed by a single person. After vanquishing the Golden Tree Spirit Beast, this individual was panting heavily. Clearly, killing this nearly perfect Golden Beast had exhausted a considerable amount of his energy. The nearly thousand Tree Spirit Beasts in the surrounding were suddenly silenced following the fall of the Golden Tree Spirit Beast, then began to scatter all around. Soon, aside from the dead Golden Tree Spirit Beast and the previously fallen Elite or Average Tree Spirit Beasts, not a single living Tree Spirit Beast was left in sight.

After killing the Golden Tree Spirit Beast, this person took a few breaths, lifted his head and saw the newly arrived Su Yu. He then pulled a smile on his face smeared with blood, showing a hint of naïveté.

This was a robust man about one meter ninety tall. Seeing him reminded Su Yu of Fang Jiong, although the man in front of him seemed much more charismatic than Fang Jiong.

With a strong build, dark skin, and a dazzling white smile, he radiated a feeling of sunshine breaking through clouds.

On the robust man’s left shoulder was a pitch-dark creature with a few white rings on its body, which made it look quite bizarre. At this moment, this dark creature was staring at Ada, not in the friendliest of manners.

However, the robust man looked at Su Yu with a simple smile, then bent down to dismember the corpse of the fallen Golden Tree Spirit Beast. Soon, he took out a brightly shining Light Sphere from it. Su Yu knew that this was the treasure belonging to the Golden Tree Spirit Beast.

Although the robust man seemed simple, judging by how he single-handedly rushed here and killed the nearly completely morphed golden beast, his strength was evidently unfathomable. Just as Su Yu was hesitating whether to leave, the robust man casually put the retrieved treasure into his pocket, then smiled at Su Yu, asking, "Are you also here in search of ’Wood Core Fire’?"

Su Yu was taken aback. Before he could react, the man shook his head and said, "Don’t worry, within this ’Jianmu Tree’, there’s quite a substantial amount of ’Wood Core Fire’. I only need two. The rest is yours." He paused and chuckled, "You’re a newcomer to the Seventh Order? I haven’t seen you before." He looked Su Yu up and down, showing a friendly demeanor.

It dawned on Su Yu. The man in front of him had mistaken him for a Seventh Stage Expert.

Bearing the power of the Golden Blood and Dark Heart within him, although Su Yu didn’t intentionally release it, this man could still sense the terrifying energy fluctuations from Su Yu, hence the misconception that Su Yu was a Seventh Stage Expert led to his question.
